🔥 Heads Up, Conifer Fire District Residents 🔥
We are now under another RED FLAG WARNING.
We know - it’s been a stretch of repeated Red Flag Warnings, and it can start to feel routine or easy to tune out.
This one matters. Conditions remain serious, and they are not improving.
What we’re seeing right now:
• Unseasonably warm temperatures (near record highs for March)
• Very low humidity - dropping into the single digits during the day
• Poor overnight recovery, meaning fuels are not regaining moisture overnight
• Dry vegetation (fuels) that can ignite easily and spread fire quickly
Saturday is a big concern:
• Temperatures in the mid-70s
• Relative humidity as low as 5–6%
• Wind gusts up to 30 mph
‼️ These conditions combine to create widespread critical fire weather
These are the kinds of conditions that firefighters pay especially close attention to.
Even when winds are lighter, the combination of heat and extremely dry air means fires can start easily and spread quickly.
📊 We’ve included a weather graphic below. It’s a bit more technical, but it gives a glimpse into the conditions firefighters are watching behind the scenes.
What this means for our community:
Please don’t let the repetition of these warnings lower your guard;
this is exactly when vigilance matters most.
• Avoid any activities that could spark a fire
• Use caution with equipment, trailers, and anything that could generate heat or sparks
Even a small ignition could have serious consequences under these conditions.
We will be closely monitoring conditions through the weekend.
Please stay alert and wildfire aware!
